Tell Us About Them On more than one occasion The Examiner has made the re- quest that relatives of returning soldiers advise this office of their arrival. People fail to take the trouble to de this and then won: der that there is not an item con- cerning the soldiers in which they are interested. The Exam- iner endeavors to keep tab on the soldiers as they come in, but it is an exceedingly difficult matter as there is no way of as- certaining the names and time of arrival of all who come. Re- latives or friends of soldiers coming home will confer a favor by promptly telephoning 1@, when the khaki-clad home. comer arrives from overseas-- adding if possible a few details to make a paragraph such as those which appear in this column.
